REPLY AS EARLIST....

26 August 2010 ST is applicable only when contractor is liable to pay ST i.e. when his tunover exceeds 10 lacs. not from begining of the year.

28 August 2010 first of all. initially exemption is given for the specified amount prescribed in a Financial year, say this year it is ten lakhs. then no service tax is payable upto value of taxable service of that amount i.e 10lakhs. suppose in a particular month the value is near crossing 10 lakhs, get your self registered and start paying service tax from the amount above ten lakhs. next year, you will have to apy service tax right from rs. 1 charged for providing taxable service and ther will be no exemption. in your case, you started providing services from the year 2007. i think the exempted value in that year was 8 lakhs. no need to get registration. next year again your exemption will be Rs. 8 lakhs.when you crossed the exemption you got the registration and started payin tax. that is also correct. there will be no exemption for the financial year 2009-10. you can not collect the service tax if it is not applicable. and if you collect, then deposit it in the C.Govt. account. it is mandatory. hope it is clear.
